    No thankyou I will not take these medications. I already have ostropenia I don't want osteoporosis. I had a hysterectomy my ovaries removed & my tubes. I believe getting rid of fat on your body you don't need reduces estrogen that you don't need. I wouldn't be able to deal with the side effects. Then I have my teeth to worry about. I still have all of my natural teeth & busted my butt to take care of my teeth. And this stuff your mentioning would cause tooth loss. There has to be more alternative treatments out there for those of us that can't tolerate these medications. I will not take this stuff for ten years. Then it causes weight gain & swelling which is what I have as it is. Then you're told that obesity causes a higher risk of breast Cancer. I told my doctor no as far as these medications are concerned.

I will continue to look for alternative treatment. Then I have trouble with lipadema even when I take pain killer's. My ankles were swollen after I had my mastectomies. So I have been looking for more exercises to do not only to be fit & lose weight. But to also lower my Cancer risk. And my body has been uncomfortable being swollen. I notice a difference with my stomach it went down some. But I have a long way to go before I will have a flat stomach.

    Chemo carpet bombs ALL fast dividing cells. It's total poison. It's a balancing act between not killing you and killing any lose cells. They are guessing there are loose cells. They don't know for sure. It's for insurance but does not guarantee the cancer will not return. It can return using chemo or Herceptin or both. Herceptin ups the percentage of heart issues. Herceptin will try to STOP the cancer from returning or if it can't do that, it will be used to SLOW down the metastasizing if it returns. If you are triple positive, (Estrogen, Progesterone and HER2 positive) they'll suggest you get 12 weeks of chemo along with Herceptin and continue Herceptin every three weeks for a year. They will also suggest you take hormone pills to totally suppress your estrogen and progesterone. This will give you extreme hot flashes, extreme night sweats, depression, weight gain, painful joints , fragile bones and menopause brain fog. They will suggest you do this for five years. All of this is with the hope that triple positive breast cancer will not return. This is the truth. You have to decide is it worth it?

    I loved all of this up until I heard "There is no evil food." With all due respect, I completely disagree. There is absolutely evil food and the companies that make this food (in labs, I might add) are driven by profits and greed with no regard to human health whatsoever. So don't let it instill fear, but know if you cannot pronounce the ingredients stay away from it. The closer the food is to the earth, the more whole and natural, the more it will help you in your fight with cancer. God put foods on this earth to heal us. I wish all health and healing.

      Praying for you! I was 56 with one college kid and one college grad. I was dx’d TNBC-4/1/22; stage 1B with Ki-67 >90; bilateral mastectomy-5/2/22 and 16 cycles of ddAC-T. I couldn’t tolerate the two iv anti-nausea meds due to 24/7 migraine which could not be tolerated. I managed with zofran, decadron, and compazine. Developed hand and foot syndrome with AC and chemo rash with taxol so oncologist switched taxol to abraxane. Didn’t make a difference. Also could not tolerate the Neulasta OnPro, but did well until 12th cycle when I became neutropenic. Took one week break for chemo rash then later neutropenia. Reconstruction began with expanders 4/3/23 then implants 7/3/23. I will need at least one more surgery and tattoos then praying it’s behind me. Next month I see oncologist and we had discussed PET scan, but idk. Just have to stay positive and fight like a girl. I hope you have a great support system. If you ever have any questions, I would be honored to help. I will honestly be praying for you. 🙏💕 Oh and I have no genetic markers for cancer.
